The Imperial Party of New Zealand is a political party from New Zealand. Its leader is Jeffery Robinson. Its policies include restricting immigration, forced repatriation, chemical castration for sex offenders, the re-introduction of slavery, and supporting the creation of a Commonwealth Parliament. It has since been revealed as a comedy hoax against the Imperial Party in Britain.
